Getting Advice
After Theresa ponders what Ethan has done, she goes out of her room and heads to the kitchen to see her mother.
"Hi, mama."
Pilar Lopez-Fitzgerald turns around from the stove, and looks at her daughter. "Theresita, what's wrong?"
"Mama, I don't know what to do! I mean you know about how I met Ethan, and yet, I'm trying to stay away from him because he lied to me."
"Do you think that maybe he had to lie to see if you liked him for who he was as a person?"
"That makes sense, mama. Ethan left me a teddy bear and a note on my window tonight. He said he was so sorry he hurt me. I just can't start off a relationship with him knowing it started as a lie."
"I understand what you're saying, Theresita. But, you have to believe in Fate. Fate is on your side. If you and Ethan are meant to be, then you will be together."
"Thanks, mama." Theresa gives her mother a hug and then goes to her room again.
Grabbing the phone, Theresa calls her best friend, Whitney Russell. "Hey, girl, how are you?"
"Theresa! I'm good, how are you?"
"One word: Confused."
"What's wrong, hun?"
"Well, you know how I told you about Ethan?"
"Yeah, I remember."
"Well, I tried staying away from him, and yet, he's not giving up on me. He's left me little notes with teddy bears, he's sent me cards. He sounds like he's generally upset that he hurt me, and wants to make it up to me."
"Theresa, I can't make a choice for you. Maybe you should meet up with Ethan and discuss your relationship, and see what happens."
"Thanks, Whit. I needed that."
"No problem, honey. Let me know how it goes."
After she hangs up the phone, Theresa calls Ethan.
"Ethan Crane."
"Ethan, hi, it's Theresa."
"Theresa! How are you?"
"I'm okay. Can you meet me for coffee at the Book Café?"
"Sure, count me in."
"Thanks."
After hanging up the phone, Theresa sighs. "God, please let me do the right thing."
